I like that the program is a longer day than other local camps. The variety of activities that my child can participate in keep each day and exciting, new adventure.

The communication was excellent. I was also super impressed with the new structure at Camp Dory. My daughter liked this year better than the last few. Great job making sure they were picked up by people on t5he approved list!!

The Ipswich has a wonderful staff from those that meet you at the door to the trainers and those that are there to help. The facility is well equipped with work out machines and the environment is friendly. Nick was very helpful in directing me on the right path to a fitness program. Matt is an excellent trainer and does a great job with the functional workout program during the week. Matt takes a personal interest to assure that everyone is participating in the program correctly and is an excellent motivator.

The counselors are awesome and our kids love it! It's probably best for 3rd grade and under - I feel like they're starting to outgrow it. Not having access to the lake this year dampened the fun - no one's fault, and the water slide made up for it a bit

Loved the water slide and new pavilion. Loved the Olympic theme this year! Loved the mystery bucket activity

I like how kids are outside during camp. Always changing activities.

Friendly counselors, great working with Cody!

Camp Dory is amazing! My boys absolutely love all the outdoorsy activities and the counselors are so wonderful and patient. They have been attending Camp Dory for three years and always have a great experience!

It’s a great spot. The counselor seem wonderful. My granddaughter enjoyed herself. She’s been tending the camp for four years.

My children always love all the activities that you guys do. I think that having Cody as an addition this year has been huge as he does have child psych backround and he is excellent at navigating conflict. I do think that some of the counselors need a little bit more training, on how to identify inappropriate behaviors, and how to deal with them In the moment. Jack the counselor will also be greatly missed!

I like the variety of activities. The kids are very active at camp.

Really great emphasis on being kind and helpful while also giving the kids a ton of options to get their crazies out. The staff is really supportive and got our kiddo to go from being terrified on boats to loving them!

Newbury, MA
The Y is a very welcoming place. They offer a great variety of classes incl7ding Yoga as well as cardio and strength. The price is great for all of the resources the Y provides!

Ipswich, MA
I recommend the Y because it’s family-friendly, affordable, and has a lot of variety—fitness options for adults plus activities for kids. The kids club especially makes it easier for parents to get workouts in. One thing I think would make it even better is if kids club were available on Sundays too.
